Math Investigations

Working on a graph of types of marshmellows in Lucky Charms cereal. We are going to miss you, Julianna!
Kendale definately knows how to graph his shapes!

David enjoys any activity involving coloring! He is a great artist!


Joseph did a really good job graphing his different shapes. And then he did a really good job of eating them!

Brooklyn helped Vishal work on his graph.


Ty loves to stay busy learning!


Conner made a flower using pattern blocks. Nice work!
Also, in the background, look at the great pictures we made with pattern block stamps!


Joseph made an awesome cat with the pattern blocks.


What did you make, Kendale?


Crystina made a picture using pattern blocks on the computer program, SHAPES. Everyone loves printing the pictures they created on the computer.


Sarah made many different shapes using the Playdough: a trapezoid, square, hexagon, rhombus and a triangle. Excellent!




Cultural Arts Day

J.J. the Jaguar went up in the hot air balloon first to celebrate all the students

who have read at least 21 books so far this year!

Then he came and said, "Hello!" to all the smart students at Beauclerc!

Mrs. Beaver got to go up in the hot air balloon, too! I've always wanted to do that!

Whee!



I hope everyone gets to go up ina balloon in their life! It was alot of fun!



The Busy Beavers



We went to the Young Rembrant's drawing school. We drew an excited kid's face.


Crystina's mom, Ms. Crystal, got to come and stay with us for most of the day!



We really had to listen carefully to learn how to draw the picture.


Isn't that a silly picture?





David Ferman, the World Junior Juggling Finalist, put on an awesome show!

Many of the students voted this as their favorite activity on Cultural Arts Day.



David enjoyed watching the other David, the juggler.




We ate our lunches outside, picnic-style.




There was a D.J. playing music for us to listen to while we ate.



After we finished eating, we got up and danced to the music! We did a train dance,

the Hokey Pokey, and even some break dancing!



Brooklyn left her hair up the whole day!


Vishal LOVES pizza! And his friend, David!



Zachary's brother, Ethan, got to come and see what goes on in Kindergarten.

Mrs. Brandon got to come, too!



Crystina and her mom really look a lot alike!



The story teller was a great show, too. He told a story, did some magic, and made us laugh!


Thanks, PTA, for the BEST Cultural Arts Day ever!!!!
